I meant to mention that the dad got a day pass from the hospital and he, his wife, the uncle and several in-laws were there.

The dad has been largely immobilized in hospital due to a severe knee injury (very severe), and has had nothing to do but have this tragedy running through his mind. Being a Dad, he blames himself - even more because it was HIS idea to walk downtown instead of staying home and watching a movie.

Now I hope he has good things to think about - the evening where he and his family didn't have to talk to the press, nothing...just relax (as much as they could), eat and enjoy.

Latest report - we have just over $20,000 for the family. We are very much hoping an anonymous expected donation will come in to cover the room and the catering...the venue wants an 18% commission on the food, even though it wasn't prepared on the site!

If we don't get it, watch that number drop by 1/3.

Prayers please that the donation arrives! $20,000 is great, but not even a year's salary for some people.

However - even with 1/3 off, it has exceeded our highest expectations!
